A Place in the Sun: Couple turn down property in Greece
Channel 4's A Place in the Sun viewers expressed concern for presenter Lee Juggurnauth during Thursday's episode, fearing his outfit choice was not suitable for the sweltering heat.
In the latest instalment, Lee ventured to the historic town of Mojacar on a mission to find Christine and Howard their dream holiday home within a tight budget of £50,000.
However, Lee's sartorial decision to don a black leather jacket paired with matching trousers became the unexpected focus for viewers, who took to social media to voice their worries about his comfort under the Spanish sun. One fan commented: "Afternoon Placers Almeria with a leather-clad Lee today. I worry for him in the heat."
Another chimed in with a more colourful observation: "Lee must be sweating like a glass blower's a**e in that leather! Afternoon folks."
A third viewer was puzzled by Lee's fashion choice, asking: "Lee looking a bit fashion muted today... leather or p'leather... or... is it rubber?", reports Wales Online.
The episode wasn't just about Lee's wardrobe choices; Christine and Howard also captured the attention of fans online. Despite their modest £50k budget, viewers were rooting for the couple to secure their ideal vacation spot.
With the support of the audience behind them, Lee showcased five potential properties, leading Christine and Howard to fall for one that ticked all their boxes.
Priced at just over £50,000, the couple were open to negotiations with potential buyers. However, viewers were left in shock when Howard made a cheeky offer of £43,000, insisting that the property required extensive work.
One viewer took to social media, commenting: "They want the owners to pay for the renovations lol cheeky."
Another chimed in with a critique: "£43k. Rude."
Despite the initial lowball offer, Christine and Howard eventually agreed on a sale price of £47,000. The deal's conclusion brought out strong emotions, much to the joy of fans watching from home.
Celebrating the outcome, one fan expressed their happiness online: "Awwww good for them... Christine's over the moon."
